Thank You

Good Sunday morning all!  I pulled out the Wavy mask for the background for today's card.  I decided to use Enchanted Gold Gilding Polish through it onto a piece of coconut white card for a subtle background.  Next I cut the Claire die in white and added both an antique gold backing and thin frame edge to it.  I cut the centre circle out of antique gold and added a Thank You sentiment in white to it.  I added it to the centre of the background with foam and made some flowers to embellish it.  I used the Striped Nasturtiums with an Enchanted Gold polish on the base and a white striped overlay on top.  I made three flowers and added them on opposite sides of the focal die.  The card was completed with white and antique gold mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 7" x 7" in size.  All for now Sue x

Morning Sue. Oh this is just gorgeous absolutely stunning. The wavy mask really does give the most perfect background to any design you inspire and share with us, and it doesn't matter whether you use guilding flakes, guilding polish or sparkle paste it always makes my eye's pop, I'm wondering if I'm confident enough to have a bash once I've stocked up on cardstock, embossing folders (of which I need many) and the mediums I need to try the new backgrounds (new to me anyway) my pixie and cling film papers look really nice after doing them properly lol and I even saved bubble wrap to use but I'm not 100% sure I've done it right although I can see a few bubble blobs they just don't stand out until you catch the light and see the sheen, but I really need to try the masks as along with Claire, the most adorable focal point you have yet again started my day with a smile. Thanks Sue and enjoy your Sunday xxx

Hi Sue

That Wavy Mask really is wonderful. It lends itself to any card. The colours are lovely. The enchanted gold gilding polish is perfectly subtle. And then there are the Striped Nasturtiums - haven’t seen them for a while but they really are gorgeous. Beautiful card x

Good morning all.
A beautiful card as always Sue. I still learn something new every day and would end up in the workhouse if I bought everything I wanted to.
Today's card is beautiful and quite restful to the eyes I think, As always Sue a masterpiece.
Glad you're getting back into the swing Yvonne but don't over do it yet.

Hi Sue. I always think the white and gold combination makes such a classy card and I always like all the cards you have made with the wavy line stencil (I don't understand why I haven't got it yet)
